The death of Bram Moolenaar, Vim founder and benevolent dictator for life (BDFL), in 2023 sent a shock through the community, and raised concern about the future of the project. At VimConf 2024 in November, current Vim maintainer Christian Brabandt delivered a keynote on “the new Vim project" that detailed how the community has reorganized itself to continue maintaining Vim and what the future looks like.



…Neovim anyone?
(Bless his soul, tho, that goes without saying)
For some reasons, each time I try neovim I go back to vim due to the performance.
And each time I am retrying, the worse it is.
What’s the real benefits of neovim I ask myself? I got a fast editor and I am not a “plugin addict”. I got my editor and all what I really want is edit text…
How do you even notice performance issues in a cli editor? 🤨
